AI has apparently been used to 'resurrect' a murder victim in a video message made to posthumously forgive his murderer. Stop. (twitter.com)

Whilst trying to find that travesty of a video, I came across this.

The message was well-received by Judge Todd Lang, who told the courtroom, “I love that AI. Thank you for that. I felt like that was genuine; that his obvious forgiveness of Mr. Horcasitas reflects the character I heard about today,”

Oh look another retarded judge. He felt the AI fabrication was fucking genuine, and that's proof enough for him! The judiciary needs a clean sweep and a fresh start.

Replace the judiciary with AI.

Won't be many dindus left on the streets if you optimize it for crime reduction.

Don’t they spend 90% or computing power on preventing AI from becoming super nazis?

Make another one for family & divorce courts and have it review all custody, support and alimony cases and I would wager there would be a lot less bullshit when they can't just ditch easy and keep their payday via alimony, child support, taking the dad's house from under him, etc.

That would be harder considering the case law we have would be awful training data. If Hoefax ever becomes a thing AI could work magic.

You joke, but the law is a prime area for AI to do most of the work:

  • far more expansive knowledge of statute and case law, to include comparable cases from other jurisdictions that may not be precedential, but could inform consistent rulings.
  • ability to know disposition of all similar cases to ensure ruling is consistent.
  • not swayed by emotion
  • able to readily detect specious arguments, and other tricks lawyers play.

It would probably be a bad idea to just turn everything over to a computer but I could definitely see them I mean into something like a "super law clerk" in the next few decades.

Sure, so long as they manage to fix the minor minor issue of "will hallucinate entire cases" part.

And the issue that it can easily be manipulated by the coders. "give lesser sentences to poor black men because of their circumstances" or "prioritize the mother over the father in custody cases" are things that can easily be added to the models.

That's not the part people will care about.

There was an article a while back where medical researchers were using medical data in AI/software training, and the researchers discovered that the software was able to predict a subject's race to a disturbing degree, with very little data.

Said researcher, being a shitlib, had much wailing and gnashing of teeth over this, but I thought it indicative of the potential if people just stop trying to constantly cripple the damn things.

It would also make the interpretation of the law by courts even more inscrutable (AI doesn't think like humans) and by having a greater capability to process case law it would magnify the significance of case law, eclipsing the literal written meanings of laws. With AI aiding or making the judicial decisions they would also be determining that case law and thus would effectively become the legislature as well.

Judicial decision making requires an understanding of society, logic, abstract reasoning, human practicality, and number of other things such that being a good judge may well be a human-complete problem. Meaning that we wouldn't be able to have good AI judges until we have AGI, at which point we also have superhuman AI and we have a near-extinction event because any schizo can use AGI to blow up the planet.

I felt like that was genuine

By definition it is not, and he needs to be impeached and removed.

We have this power, there is no excuse to allow this.

AI results say only 15 federal judges have been impeached in the entire history of America. Most of them committed financial crimes. There is basically no precedent for removing judges based on incompetence or partiality. The tiny kings in black robes are the real power in every “democracy”.

Impeachment is the least bad judges should get. They should be convicted for obstruction of justice and more depending on the circumstances. Judicial immunity needs to be thrown in the dustbin of history.

If a judge is impeding a court operating as it should, they ought to be charged with contempt for every case they've fucked.

You really couldn't take an extra ten secpnds to look below the algorithmic word vomit?

Don't even post if you're outsourcing all thought to a machine. Become human.

Comment Reported for: Rule 3 - Harassment

I don't think this comment does this. I get the idea of 'dehumanization', but I don't think this is meant to say that the user is actually less than human morally, but instead just needs to post in a specific way.

Impeachments are fundamentally a political process. The precedent for removing judges via impeachments is not done because of the assumption that judges are operating on generally good faith for the benefit of the law. They are not. They are operating exclusively as partisan executors for the purposes of political enforcement. I don't care that there is no precedent for it. The philosophy that undergirded that privilege: objective moral standards and high trust people and institutions protecting an objective sense of fairness in law, fucking died.

Impeach and remove. We can do it with presidents, and we can do it with judges for just as silly reasons.
